Adelaide move on to second place after bagging their third win of the tournament. Thanks for joining us today and do continue to follow us for the rest of the tournament. Cheers and goodbye.

A comprehensive win for the Adelaide Strikers. The bowlers did a good job by restricting Sydney to just 135. It could have been a tricky totaly but the openers, Klinger and Ludeman, batted sensibly and brought out the big shots when needed to put on a massive stand. None of the Sydney bowlers managed to impress.
